Road between Hondelage and Wendhausen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Since September 14, 2024, the entire route has been covered with gravel. You can drive on it, but the asphalted dirt road between Dibbesdorf and Wendhausen is the better alternative.

Paved cycle path between Lehre and Wendhausen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Completely paved in good condition with some hedges and trees to protect against the wind. Really nice route. Extension to Groß Brunsrode or Hondelage as an option.

Newly Paved Road to Glentorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The section shortly after the A2 was resurfaced to Glentorf in July 2024. A dream in black with two shoulders that takes us undulating to Glentorf.

View of the Elm-Lappwald Countryside

Highlight • Viewpoint

The southern approach to the Rieseberg is a bit easier. Super asphalt, the gradient is between 2-5% and in the forest about 7% and the increase is 1750m long and 45m in altitude.

October 7, 2024,Saisonabschluß für Schmal für 2024

Today is probably my last round for 2024 in "Schmal" on site. In November I'll bring the summer back again, with plenty of sun and everything in "shorts". At just under 18° I'm already riding with a transition jersey and leg warmers; I'm a wimp. Today again over the Rieseberg, which already stands out with this elevation profile. Back again …

I drove the route from Glentorf through the forest near Rieseberg for the first time. Very nice route through the …

June 5, 2024,Einmal Rieseberg mit Niesel

I actually wanted to ride north yesterday because the weather was more consistent, but I decided to take the motorbike and head to Elm and Asse. Today I preferred a shorter ride to Rieseberg and according to the weather app there was actually 0% chance of rain, but from kilometer 35 onwards it was nice and drizzly to Lehre and …

May 20, 2025,Einmal zum Rieseberg

Today I started a longer "short" ride to Rieseberg. On my ride, the elevation profile clearly shows the small hill. Unfortunately, I was a bit unlucky with the wind, as it changed direction on the way back; so it felt like a headwind. I rode this route 10 days ago, but the section from Scheppau to Lauingen was closed, so …
